In order to understand the nature of healing we must understand the reason healing is needed. As you can recall we left off with a question. An unblemished creation, a perfect caricature of a protected fetus in the most perfect of environments, all at once in an instant of time may be subject to harm at any given moment either while in the womb, at birth, as a child and adult through the sojourn of this life. Why does it become necessary for repair, restoration to soundness and spiritual wholeness become an eternal healing pulse?
In essence, the word healing has connotations of being restored and protected. It has become necessary for humans in the natural and supernatural sense to be protected. The rightful meaning the the word healing is to restore to health or soudness, to set right; repair, to restore (a person) to spiritual wholeness. Healing in the Christian sense is to be sound in spirit, mind and body. A necessary spiritual wholeness that requires an active administration and conferment upon an individual from a power source greater than the self.
The notorious phrase "physician heal yourself" is a perfect illustration of what the natural human is incapable of. We cannot heal ourselves. We can take action to move into an healing experience and life practice. We must cooperate and put into practice the things we know will yield a greater sense of wholeness. However, healing in the Christian sense requires an eternal, infinite omnipotent divinity with perfect and unblemished attributes. Anything less would be insufficient to true and perfect healing which is an infinitely divine eternal work.
